[Prevalence of ischemic heart disease depending on the extent of manifestation of certain risk factors].

A comparative assessment is presented for the significance of some risk factors (systolic and diastolic pressures, blood serum cholesterol and triglycerides, fasting blood sugar level and blood fibrinogen level) for the spreading of ischaemic heart disease with reference to their severity. When the method of parametric discriminative analysis was used, most of the examined indices displayed a growing extent of ischaemic heart disease from the lower values towards the higher ones, and a decreasing importance of the factor with the growing age. The multidimentional analysis of the spreading of ischaemic heart disease illustrates its increasing spreading along with the accumulation of the amount of some risk factors. These data proved the necessity of a differentiated approach to the study of preventive measures in different age groups with certain risk factors.
